	Walker, Wilhelmina [Hinton,] Hurricane, Utah US	Wilhelmina & Thomas Hinton
	Class of 1897? Wilhelmina Barbara Walker Hinton. Born the third child to a mother who bore eleven children (seven living to maturity) between the 1870’s and 1890’s, Wilhelmina Barbara Walker Hinton — remembered affectionately throughout the Hurricane Valley as “Aunt Mina” — found one of her life’s role models in her aunt, Louisa Rice, who was the midwife for her mother’s deliveries. Originally from Little Spring Valley, Nevada, Mina Hinton was born on October 18, 1873, on a two-hundred acre ranch which her parents, immigrants from Germany and Switzerland, turned into a dairy farm. Once they were able to make headway against the area’s thieves, rustlers, and robbers (as Mina described those who plagued her father’s farm), they were able to sell cheese at eighty cents per pound and butter at seventy-five cents per pound in mining communities such as Pioche, Nevada. Her parents had both converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints upon arrival in America, and in November of 1892, the family moved their family to Hinckley, Utah, in Millard County. Mina attended Brigham Young Academy in Provo until 1897, then returned to teach the first four grades at the district school at Hinckley — that was until Thomas Maurice Hinton of Virgin, Utah, arrived in Hinckley to look for work. They married on October 5, 1898, at which point they moved around Utah and Nevada following the work he had, much of it as a section hand for the Union Pacific Railroad. In 1905, the young Hintons and their three children moved back to Maurice’s native southern Utah home at word of the success of the canals. They spent a year in Virgin, but with water flowing for the first time on the Hurricane Bench, a new town emerged and began to grow — Hurricane. The Hintons made their way to Hurricane where Maurice first built a granary and home for Thomas Isom, and then built a home for his own family at 200 North and 200 West. Mina earned the distinction of being the first woman to live in Hurricane, but that status only lasted a few months, for families arrived in the Hurricane Valley in a flow comparable to the water coming down the canal. In 1920, Hurricane’s Dr. Wilkinson asked Mina to assist him, and her work over the next twenty-four years made her one of the Hurricane Valley’s most celebrated pioneers. A midwife for a recorded 442 deliveries, many of today’s Hurricane Valley residents have Mina Hinton to thank for her assistance at the birth of their parents or grandparents. However, delivering babies was not her only duty. Mina often stayed to help at the home of a new delivery for as long as two weeks until the new mother could reassume the tasks of her household. Mina also cared for the sick throughout those years and was said to have a healing touch. While her work as a midwife and caregiver remains her primary legacy, Mina and Maurice also raised seven children together and Mina was very involved in church callings throughout the decades. Mina loved music, literature, and poetry. She led various choirs in the area, read frequently, and contributed her original poetry for special occasions such as weddings and funerals. Another first attributed to Mina was that she was Hurricane’s first reporter — Mina was the Hurricane correspondent to the Washington County News for many years. Maurice passed away in 1948, but Mina carried on in the Hurricane Valley for more than twenty additional years. She passed away just one week shy of her ninety-fifth birthday, October 10, 1968. The Hinton home Maurice built in 1906 was moved from 200 North and 200 West to its current location at approximately 68 West State Street — the location of the original Isom granary — where it was restored by the Washington County Historical Society.
